New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (I) did their wide-eyed best to combat the oligarchy and crush corporate greed during their tour together in the spring—and they seem to have had an awfully cushy time doing it, according to reports about their expenses.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), an outspoken opponent against what she describes as rich elites, stayed at several swanky hotels while rallying across the country with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) for their “Fighting Oligarchy” tour, a Washington Examiner review of the congresswoman’s campaign spending receipts has found.
According to Federal Election Commission filings, her high-end hotel stays, which coincided with stretches of the Democratic Socialist duo’s cross-country trek to rail against the ultrawealthy, cost thousands of dollars in campaign funds.
Sounds like a lovely trip:

Days before the donor-funded disbursement date, as listed later in an expenditure report, Ocasio-Cortez appeared alongside Sanders at a stop in North Las Vegas, where they both bashed the luxurious lifestyles of billionaires and “oligarchs” purportedly taking over the country.
Ocasio-Cortez was photographed flying first-class to the Las Vegas town hall. According to a passenger who spotted her aboard the plane, the congressional representative had ignored a friendly greeting from the economy-cabin flier.
In April, Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign spent another $3,445.59 on a sojourn at Asher Adams, Autograph Collection, an upscale mountain-area escape in Salt Lake City, Utah.

It’s yet another example of the Democrats’ (Socialists’) real mantra: “Do as I say, not as I do. Live like you do, not like we do.”
Editor’s Note: The Democrat Party has never been less popular as voters reject its globalist agenda.
